Pig Slap

Did he really say this?

Down in Wyoming, U.S. Rep. Barbara Cubin got into some hot water when, after a debate, she threatened Libertarian candidate Thomas Rankin, who has multiple sclerosis and uses an electric wheelchair. She reportedly said to him, “If you weren’t sitting in that chair, I’d slap you across the face.”

She later apologized, saying she may have been influenced by listening to too much Rush Limbaugh. Last week, Limbaugh said he would slap actor and Parkinson’s disease sufferer Michael J. Fox, “if you’d just quit bobbing your head.”

I knew that he was a degenerate pig, and his comments have all been disgusting on this subject, but I hadn’t heard he went that far. Does anyone know if that’s true?

*And that woman deserves to lose, both for what she originally said and the idiotic excuse she came up with.

Update: Doh. That’s what I get for taking the quote from another blog and not reading the whole article. It’s a satire.
